I am assuming you are asking if a woman can have her period when she is pregnant.
Many women report getting what seem like regular periods during early pregnancy. How can this be? First of all, it helps to realize that since the hormones of pregnancy totally prevent ovulation, the bleeding is not truly a menstrual period, but rather early pregnancy bleeding. That said, the perception of having a menstrual period (or more than one) in early pregnancy can confuse the due date and delay some pregnant women from seeking appropriate and timely medical care.
Many mothers-to-be get a few days of bleeding right around the time that the early embryo is burrowing into the wall of the uterus. On average, this occurs five days after conception and may be confused with an early period, especially if the woman is not keeping close track of her cycles.
Women who get pregnant while on the Pill might have intermittent bleeding before it is obvious that they are pregnant and they stop taking their pills. The calculation of the due date based on these episodes will most likely be inaccurate, so ultrasound is almost always needed to date a pregnancy in this situation
Bleeding in early pregnancy is a common occurrence, but this does not signal a true menstrual cycle, as pregnancy hormones prevent the ovary's release of an egg as well as the buildup and subsequent shedding of the uterine lining. If these episodes are intermittent, they can be perceived as periods, and the mother-to-be may not recognize that she is pregnant. In instances where a couple is unaware that they are expecting, it can be particularly emotionally challenging to find out about the pregnancy at the same time they are told that the bleeding might signal a problem.
Getting Pregnant when on your period!!!
There's an urban legend that you can't get pregnant during your period. Because a woman's cycle is not 100% predictable, there is never a perfectly safe period as far as pregnancy goes.
Normally, your body goes through a set cycle. It starts with an egg being released from your egg sac and heading down the fallopean tube. It ends up in the uterus, where it waits to get fertilized by a sperm and turn into a baby. If that happens, then it latches onto the uterus wall and develops for 9 months, normal pregnancy. But if no sperm comes along, the egg and the uterus lining flushes away through your vagina, and that is your period. Then a new egg is released from your egg sac and the cycle starts all over again.
So on one hand, having sperm enter your uterus while the lining is being flushed isn't the IDEAL time for pregnancy. There isn't a uterine lining waiting for the new baby, there isn't necessarily an egg waiting there to be impregnanted. However, a woman's cycle isn't always that nice and steady - especially for teenagers and young adults. Eggs can easily be released at odd times. There could easily be another egg coming down the tube that is just waiting for a sperm, and the new baby could be there, waiting, when the next lining is formed for it.
Also, sperm are very hearty. They can easily last 5 days or more. So the sperm can simply sit there in the uterus, waiting for the next egg to come down the chute. When it does, they hook up with it, create the baby, and now you're pregnant.
So no matter what point in your cycle you are, if you don't want to get pregnant, use protection!

Ok, about 14 days before your next period an egg is released from your ovary. If there is intercourse and the egg is fertelized by a sperm, it will try to implant in your uterine lining. If it implants you will be pregnant. If it does not implant, then the utering lining will shed off causing the "blood" of your period. Then, the cycle repeats itself. Unless you do get pregnant. Then you just grow a baby.

You get preagnte 7 days before and or, 7 day after never while you on it. Nothing can stay in at this time. Your body is cleaning out the bad stuff. So even if you had sex while on you period, you still would get pregnant.

Your period doesn't get you pregnant. A girl actually starts her period when she starts ovulating. The girls body uses menstruation to clean out the uterus lining each month, but the egg during ovulation is what actually causes a girl to get pregnant.

Your period does not get you PERGENT, although having it helps. You need an IVF containing sperm at least, if you don't want the sex.

Your period doesn't get you pregnant, a man does. A period is usually a pretty good sign that you aren't pregnant.
